Aim of the checklist and attached tools

Enable a finance function to understand and see inflation in a strategic and operational context.
Enable finance to have a lens on this factor because its levels require new levels of monitoring and a new lens.
This lens should empower finance to join the dots on inflation — to create an integrated thinking approach towards inflation in its business model.
Inflation will have an impact on businesses, which will need to have some ‘lenses’ and indeed to reorient in a way to cope with it.
Enable the actual identification and listing of the key inflationary drivers within a business model.
Enable finance to see these drivers and monitor them in one place for the first time.
Empower finance to act to solve/manage/mitigate inflation in the business and upon the business.
Empower finance to review, seek, and explore any opportunities from inflation.
